The app has an amazing experience so far, because it feels like I'm just using Apollo, heaps of baked in features that no other app has so far. It's a web app so installation is pretty forward. Much love to the Devs!

(Side note: please change the name to something better. I recommend the name Voyager to keep up with the theme)

Installation:

https://wefwef.app/settings/install

Oh wow. This is really nice! Thanks for sharing!

Indeed it's awesome, thank you!

Oh my god, this looks incredible. Thanks for this!

This is nice! my only suggestion would be the ability to minimize cards for a text feed, if that's something that's eventually possible.

I like how smooth wefwef is, but if I could keep everything from auto-expanding (i.e. just scrolling through titles instead) it'd be closer to the old.reddit / RiF experience 🙂

Thanks for the post. Installed to Home Screen on iPhone. Working nicely to start. Looks good.

I’m brand new to Lemmy but this looks great and makes me feel at home already! Thanks for the recommendation

iPhone 14 user here. Anyone else have trouble with the keyboard not coming up for login credentials? I also tried cut and paste function but my details aren’t recognised despite being 100% correct.

Just downloaded it because of this post and I gotta say, it's fucking brilliant.

Bumped into this app yesterday and it’s so user friendly! Can’t wait for more features to be added.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Totally agree. I never thought the best client would be a web app on my home screen, but here we are!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Incredible app! Never realized a web app could be so sexy.

If you're loving wefwef because of it's Apollo likeness, then you need to checkout Memmy

It actually introduces all the features Apollo had with native haptics, slide interactions and navigations, push notifications, and more. The developers have been working hard and pushing releases daily (sometimes multiple per day).

As an Apollo users for the last 6 years, Memmy has been by far the best iOS app for Lemmy that I have tried (which have been Mlem, Thunder, Liftoff (prev. known as Limbo)

This is looking good so far, really captures the Apollo feel well. Hoping it continues to develop and/or potentially becomes an iOS app at some point.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is there actually an app or is this all web based? I can't figure it out.

If I didn’t know any better, I’d say this just is Apollo, but pulling from a different API.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is there a way to hide read posts?

I use Memmy. I'm really liking it so far. Its not on the app store yet so you have to install it through TestFlight, go to the github on your phone, and then click the invite link. Isn't perfect but great so far

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It doesn’t work on an XR. The interface is too tiny to click login unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It feels so weird iOS interface but a PWA, I’m a fellow Memmy user

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yooo that’s amazing. I was using Memmy but I’ll switch over to wefwef. It looks just like Apollo!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

This is an awesome app, thanks!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You are a beautiful being.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Wefwef is gorgeous for sure and eerily familiar to ex Apollo users. It does show the red error message a lot though. It even said my user doesn’t exist when I logged in, but somehow I am still logged in. And it only lets me upvote every second click. We’ll see if it lets me post this.

But visually it’s a pretty stellar effort.
